Château Margaux--Vintage 1982
Margaux, 1er cru classé
All lots in original wooden cases. Lot 57 all slightly corroded capsules. Excellent appearance. Levels base of neck or better. Lot 58 five slightly corroded capsules. All slightly bin-soiled labels, one stained. Levels eleven base of neck or better and one top-shoulder. Lot 59 some slightly creased label edges, otherwise excellent appearance. Levels: eight base of neck or better, three top and one upper-shoulder
Tasting Note: Consistently scoring between 98-100, the superb 1982 Margaux may be slightly bigger, bolder, and more masculine than vintages produced over the last 15-20 years. Its dark plum/purple colour is followed by notes of melted tar intermixed with sweet cassis and floral underpinnings. Very full-bodied and dense for a Château Margaux, with a slight rusticity to the tannins, it boasts blockbuster power, richness, and impressive aromatics. It appears set for another 30-40 years of life. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 183 June 2009
